Always expect the unexpected Cuz you never know what's around the corner And that's a good thing Haha Here we go I woke up Sunday morning In an unfamiliar place She's a very lovely woman of course It's written all over my face but I stand up and put my shoes on tight Gotta make a dollar tryna' do what's right Got the team wit me Just myself and I No one else that I rely on to make my dreams take flight It's cool for masses fillin' they cup At bars and clubs they getting turnt up Perked up at the sensation of a thrill Never been a stranger yeah I know the deal Never one to get scared when things got real Things get raw that's when most hit the door Things going good that'w when I wanna work more Smashing the pedal till the metal hit the floor Life is such a crazy game but I Try not to remain the same you see Change will come to those that grow into the One that they're supposed to be but I Slip and fall sometimes I hit the ground Looking for someone to save me But I have to remember that I can Use the hand that someone gave me Maybe I neva' eva' gonna make it Maybe its underneath my feet Maybe I'm neva' eva gonna take it Maybe its something I can't see Maybe its the surrounding environment that I'm in Maybe it's all the people that's my next of kin Maybe I'm crazy I'll neva' be the same I can see my time running maybe I need a pen Maybe is crazy I wanna know for sure If I got the key to open up the front All the lies being told and the souls being sold I get iffy when somebody wanna be my friend Tellin' me that they wanna ride till the end Always wanna receive what they neva' send They are never around when you down but they there when you up Hand out asking for you help again Staving the greedy disguised as the needy When I'm out of town I rep my city When I come home I can feel the shade and the hate Wrapped in empty praise Attitude Kinda shitty Staving the greedy disguised as the needy When I'm out of town I rep my city When I come home I can feel the shade and the hate Wrapped in empty praise Attitude Kinda shitty

Die Chop 01:37
They say we all made in the lord’s image And life is kinda like a game sorta like a scrimmage To grow to be a strong boy you gotta eat yo spinach And go do your homework but I didn’t pay attention Here’s the real lesson ABCDEFG For a G to F it up you see Be all I can be Ain’t no otha MC’s measuring up to me You like a pine cone and I’m like a Cali Redwood Tree We will see what life has in store I got the keys baybe so come open up the door I’m just an open vessel from out which music will pour Dollars and cents will stack to the ceiling straight from the floor huh We maad wealthy already Family like a lion pride I’m at the barn with the hay chillin the broad side With these broads who got they hand out asking for guest list But I’m gone My checklist I’m on the highway doin’ 95 on 95 Tryna dodge the snake and police Bout to unleash these rapturous flows Play the shows and get the money Your know we reppin’ VA Got that “R” in the from cuz that’s where we stay Each and everyday Finna light it up and put some in my cup Take a sip it’s good for ya Yeah You know it’s good for ya You know it’s good for ya You know it’s good for ya

Confessions 02:36
Please I need you attention I’m running out of time This is my confession I just wanna let you know Please I need you attention I’m running out of time This is my confession I just wanna let you know Late night confession Since the last time we talked I don’t think I learned my lesson From myself I need protection arranged Good things are always gone just as fast as they came I know it sounds kinda lame but I’m under pressure Similar to where them diamonds came See it’s hard to measure Cuz it’s all inside my brain from which it’s transmitted From where see I don’t have a name To do see I don’t have a choice Every voice must be lifted Especially the gifted See I’m on a mission I need to get these words written and keep this beat knock kickin’ for those who listening Poppin’ bottles like I’m at the christenin’ Sickenin’ is self inflicted for those afflicted Because they know this is the lifestyle they picked Tricked it out to fit me no doubt Please I need you attention I’m running out of time This is my confession I just wanna let you know Please I need you attention I’m running out of time This is my confession I just wanna let you know Sometimes my eyes get shifty no doubt but when it was on they did not open they mouth So when I go back home I lie down And get a lonely feeling cuz there is no one around So when I go back home I write these words And hope to paint a pretty picture Fly like a bird in each direction with the microphone grip Pen and paper on my hip and pray that I will never slip Into the darkness of the bottom People screaming that they got em He just like the rest of us he think he better that’s a problem I just wanna scratch pages and pages of art from the start From the head through the heart From the bed to bed hustle Hunnit mile-an-hour tussle with the world Gotta clear the way or the music won’t play Gotta donit today cuz forever it won’t stay Gotta make it okay Please I need you attention I’m running out of time Ayo yo It’s time to get up Let’s go You gotta get up Get out the bed We’ve got work to do You gotta get up Let’s Go I know you tired I know you hungry I know you broke Get up Let’s Go We gotta go Gotta move Gotta move gotta move Let’s go Get up Get uuuupp We runnin’ outta

Time is a wastin’ Shoes worn out from all these dreams I been chasin’ Broken bank of memories Flood my concentration Enemies Thought I had it on my plate Saw the gates open wide Let the people up inside I saw inside that all they souls had died Looking for the money Ain’t it kinda funny I never know what they be on They never miss the real until real is dead and gone Till the fake stuff is camped out in front the house Till the backstabbaz spend the night all on the couch I had to run away I could see it from the ground If you look hard enough you see the lost and found Lord please help me be the best and all that i can be I’m on the roof and I’m bout to jump Cold feet in the ocean Gotta cross the hump All I got is these words and a record with a bump Where do we go now? Now I’m lost I can’t be found Found I tripped and fell all the way down Down Please tell me where do we go Time is a wastin’ Got so much on my mind Sippin on this fine wine I don’t know but I keep pacin’ all day Back and forth you know Which way do I go Up at night asking for the way Lease show me the light I just write Thoughts and feelings down Hope they gather round and listen close to what I have to say And maybe one day They will play my records on the radio like Drake and Ye RVA they will put me on and it will be okay Until then I have to make a dolla stretch just like a rubber band Pencil in my right Piece of paper in my other hand Get these words from Jellowstone and send them to Afghanistan They might now like it but I’m crazy so right now that is the play It might not work it might go wrong but right now it’s out of my hands I keep it together Even in the stormy weather Even in the face of evil I will not allow I got my shoes on Tell me where do we go now Where do we go now? Now I’m lost I can’t be found Found I tripped and fell all the way down Down Please tell me where do we go

I don't wanna run away This is where I need to be I don't wanna run away There's no where else for me to go I don't wanna run away This is where I need to be I don't wanna run away There no where else for me to go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hands up freeze That's what the police used to say inside the neighborhood I know their presence is supposed to be a force for good But that experience for us was never understood Nobody cares But they would If it was on the news He had no gun but they still shot him right up out his shoes Now his momma and his babies only cry the blues Every black man in America has paid his dues Die tryin' cuz we born to lose Just look at the clues my image you misuse No apology for what you mentally abuse No war no truce we only allowed to diffuse But when it all explodes just know that y'all the one that lit the fuse Blood stains on yo shoes from your pistol poppin' He tried to run away but you didn't even try to stop I'm runnin' out of all the hope that I gave This is the land of the police and the home of the slave I don't wanna run away This is where I need to be I don't wanna run away There's no where else for me to go I don't wanna run away This is where I need to be I don't wanna run away There no where else for me to go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go Hey To Go To go To go To go

Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way I Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way I Slip and fall down sometimes Hand on the pavement on the pavement I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way About the things I see To me it's no mystery I All the pain and the misery I Feel some type of way I Don't know what to say I Feel low down some time Haven in the way the rhyme schemes devise I Standing in the rain Blood pumping through my veins and my arteries I Hear the fear and the negativity Made a promise not to eva let it get to me But I Feel some type of way I Don't know what to say I Said things that I didn't mean before Said things that I know hurt you way down to your core But I Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way I Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way I Standing in the rain I Don't know what to say I Don't know what to say I Feel some type of way

Can't Wait 02:29
My dreams used to be vivid But then I decided to play music for a living Didn't understand all of the tools that I was given Tryna be more like a car Stay driven Far from being broke Ima star It was written Seems like everyone around me is in the game Tryin' not to drink too much Or sniff Cane Roll that green up in that dutch to be the same Sign my name on piece of paper for the fame Sell my soul for dollars cents is not why I came I can concentrate on what's inside the scope Wake up in the morning in search of infinite hope Dressed in all white and I'm waiving just like the pope My fingers slip I loose my grip and it's harder to cope Fear and hate can't show my face at the place with the folk Phone's ringing Who is these people dialing my line? Working hard hoping today is the right time Bright shine They say one day I gets mine I think I use my own spine It rings beautiful like the sound of a rhodes tine Today is Friday It's my day Hopefully I don't die today I tried to play but this shit won't go my way I take the hight way to get to the place where I stay Jellowstone home of the champions all day Walking toward the light Put some clothes on so I can get wild for the night Self-medication Pissin' in the alley Now she's here naked

I just want to put my fingers in the skyyyyyyy yeah I just want to put my fingers in the skyyyyyy yeah A picture paints a thousand words but I am similar to the dictionary Money falling out the sky like the tooth fairy Kinda scary how fly My oh my oh my Look I did it once again for y’all I’m swimming to the top and I am not about to fall Walking tall Tryna snatch as much as I can and they better put my money in my hand Yes lawd The best award is when i press record Late night bored Early morning hustle Bustle Tussle With these words and these thoughts Spontaneous combustion as soon as the record starts Infinity swag is the thing that sets me apart from all the copies and the fakes Whatever it takes to reach the promise land I’m doing whatever I can Bald eagle swag with the massive wing span yep I’m flying high over the world With a Black lamborghini White diamonds and pearls I got a roller coaster life and it makes you wanna hurl Trickles down ya spine and it make ya toes curl Whether a boy or a girl it’s only necessary to respect the hustle I’m using the powers of my mind Never rely on muscle Take you to a place that’s foreign like we live on shuttles Close your mouth hop in this whip so we can get to scufflin’ Airport swag 5am Guinness hype in Dublin Amsterdammit here I am man ain’t this shit something What i’m staring at through my eyes I knew it was coming Cuz hard work always pays off i’m making something from nothing On the hunt as long as the blood in my lion heart is pumping Standing on the edge of the cliff You better believe I’m jumping I put my heart in microphones to keep these records jumping I just want to put fingers through the skyyyyy Yeah yeah yeah I just want to put my fingers through the skyyyyy Yeah yeah yeah yeah Hahahahaha Okay

Dreams come true when I start the ignition The mission is simple Do everything I can to get it poppin’ like a pimple Dial up the greatness and get it on the phone Hail mary pass right into the end zone With the dark skin tone Smackin’ both cheeks like we playin’ home alone In between the sheets like the words of a poem I contemplate the take ova til the break’s ova Full of red wine a long way away from sober Early morning April late nights of October Mr. Lova Lova Fickle-hearted rova With a lottery ticket and a four leaf clover Whole band in a brand new range rover They flows is nice but mines is Ice colder Line backer stick em with the strong cold shoulder Dropping heat rocks so watch for falling boulders War torn continent African soldier Wake up in the morning to the words that I told ya Simple victory is in the eyes of the beholder We gotta do it now because we only getting older Highway late night bangin’ ambrosia Jazz cigarettes with the cold road sodas Fucks I’m not givin’ not one iota Police layin’ people down just to fill a quota La to Miami New York down to the Nola Coming out the woodwork Sorry I don’t know ya Evil ones around me soon they will show ya The only thing i’m on the road a head I’m focused on yeah On the road a head the only thing I’m focused on Is getting to the money making sure the money long A race against the clock until I hear them hit the gong As a grown man I had to learn to write my wrong Put two and two together like I’m squeezing kitchen tongs Gotta make the record bring it to your front lawn Everybody wanna get straight to the money But they game ain’t strong enough to get to the upper echilon I never close my eyes until the break of dawn Even then I get my pencil and continue on Late night planes and trains and sleeping on busses For the discussionjust to let you know what I be on Phone call I hit em back on the avion Holla at me later when I get back to the stone Working hard to avoid the outcome of a clone Turn the bass up a little darken up the tone Cup of coffee regular accompany the scone On the hunt for the hunnit million dollar zone Light the beacon My whole team steady creepin’ and yo hinges maad rusty and yo flow is leaking We maad official with the game Concorde it when I came in the world the party got heated when I came with yo girl And with the flame spit hot shit at the microphone Givin’ everything that I got This is not a loan I run the bank like prison guards at Shawshank Born underwater we swimming in fish tank I’m takin’ what I want I shake the tree til it break I be working while you sleeping I’m doing what you can’t Ah

Wake up wake up I’m on the move with my eyes wide Driven exclusively by something that’s deep inside Just as soon as it manifest it will turn the tide And flip the script on those foes that perpetrate It's time to elevate Ain't no mo hesitate Ain't no mo conversate Ain't no mo other time Nothin' but redline Just tires screechin' and speakers beatin' and street signs I'm on the heat-seekin' mission coming for what is mine Stars will align Planets will conviene Beatin' on the drum day and night that's all I need Gotta get it now because I got the live feed Action initiated this is built for speed Years it was contemplated while I was a different breed On the Hunt for the game Increasing all that I know Soon I will dehttps://tennishumusic.bandcamp.com/no_js/savetonate it like a bomb in the free Falling position So just sit back relax kick yo feet up high While I take you to a place buried way high in the sky See it in the eyes of your universal mind And let it shine Just like the brightest diamonds Or a little light of me Succumb to the advantage of the grand design Work the land for the cabbage Use yo own spine Dreams of livin' lavish Work ethic is savage Neva eva been average when I'm swinging the bat Ever since I was born I had the work on my back Everybody is working hard for the G stack But I want to be mentioned when they go way back Way down deep For them to feel it in they soul is the goal And if you widdit then let's roll Cuz we got a long road ahead From the bed to the bed Watch what you put inside yo mouf and yo head They ain't on the team they can't go Enough said Beat knock it hit like a pipe to your head With the SP til finger tips is red Eye lids is heavy Kneecaps is shaky Elbows is achy Heart they gonna break for those that wanna take Never settle for good Made it better than great Made it better then most Gotta do what I'm sposed to Hand out I ghost ya
